<p>I’ve never seen that either – that a student must have graduated from an accredited high school. So, can you tell from the website, does this college not accept any students with a non-traditional education? Homeschoolers, students who go straight into college early without have finished high school, students from non-accredited privates, international students with a different systems than our accreditation system? It seems weird that a public university would even want to be that restrictive.</p>
<p>If they do have alternative admissions requirements, but only require traditionally schooled students to have attended an accredited high school, then you might end up better off applying as a homeschooler. It may not entail additional testing, especially if your daughter has “outside” grades. If it was me, what I would not want to do is for my child to pretend to be a traditional applicant when they weren’t if there was a piece missing – such as your situation with the accreditation of your private umbrella school.</p>
